Not too Many

-

I don’t have many reading this blog for which I am very thankful.  I write mostly for myself and share a few thoughts with those interested. This is my 877th post for this blog.  If I felt I was going to run out of time on this earth, I may have done things differently.  I write this blog to help pass the time.  It’s been 31 years since my experience with my Angels and I have had to be very careful about sharing the experience.  

I have reached the point in my life where I simply don’t care what anyone thinks.  I had been told my Angels were an hallucination; they were demons; or that I simply made them up—in other words I had lied.  I felt I had to prove them in some way but didn’t know how.  I had no role models and at the time there was no social networking.  And in a way I went into seclusion as much as I could.

I’m thankful at least a few of you read what I wrote. Everything is in steps.  I’ll smoke my pipe and think about the very step.  It might be a book.  Jesus said there will be labor pains before the New Beginning.  We are experiencing those now.   One of the ways my Angels changed me was my theology.  God forgives every sin, including unbelief.  I had not committed either unforgivable sin.  

But for me prevention was more important than salvation.  I was forgiven all my sins by my Angels.  But I can’t prove this.  I have a place in heaven with my family.    I focused on them in my seclusion.  It was all I could do.  I tried going back to the church once, but realized I can’t do this.  My view of salvation is different.  

So, I’ll wait and see what that next step might be.  If my Angels have taught me one thing, it is patience.  At that time there was no social networking and my life became similar to so many who had similar experiences.  So, I had to learn and I’m still learning.  We will see what that next step will be.  

I’ve been thinking about a book and much of it is in my head.  That could be the next step, but I’ll wait and see how the Spirit leads.  I’m thankful my Angels said my pipe smoking was up to me.  I smoke a pipe while I ponder all the Angels told me.  It’s Saturday and my pipe this morning is my Boswell pipe.  My tobacco this morning is Bayou Night.  My coffee this morning is Bella Maria Organic coffee.  Thank you for your time and Prace to each one of you.

It's About Balance

 I seem to struggle week after week as to how much football I am going to watch.  There for awhile I was watching all the analysis of the collegiate games and decided I was simply paying too much attention to football.  I cut way back last week and as the season begins to unfold I have to ask myself how much is too much?  I didn't watch one pro game last weekend and hadn't followed the analysis of collegiate games all week.   Then I found myself having a kind of withdrawal and decided I can watch whatever football I want to watch as long as it doesn't interfere with my Spirituality.  But at what point is too much too much?  My wife and I talked about this last week as I cut back on watching and we both decided that I like football and I shouldn't have to be thinking about how much or how little I watch.  I enjoy the games.  College more than the pro's.   I don't have to watch the analysis, but I like College Game Day and I like...

Strange

 I can never predict how any of my posts are going to be received but I do get a reaction from my wife quite often, but I'll post about my Spirituality thinking I've said enough and apart from a few other subjects my Spirituality posts do quite well.  I had yesterday's tobacco review done a few days ago and saved it for yesterday and again, it seems my tobacco reviews do quite well.  Then I wrote about my age and it seemed no one cared that much   My wife says that it's my titles for my subjects So, while I have so many subjects to choose from, today it is about how my tobacco choices influence my Spirituality or do they?  Not really.  It's just that I can't smoke my pipes without tobacco.  I could be smoking a lot of things.  Like the question asked when someone thinks you are crazy, " What have I been smoking?"  Well, at least you know.  It's never any "funny" stuff.  You could be asking what I've been drinking.  I have ...

Old Ads

-
 My wife liked my post about old things we remember.  And a lot of what I remembered was good.  But there was some bad things back then that are different today.  Back in the 50's and 60's and even into the 70's advertising in both magazines and TV were incredibly sexist.  I don't have the space in one post to list all the ads, but really they can be summed by saying that a lot of advertising was incredibly sexist. I 've mentioned my wife lit my pipe for me just a few times, but these days she can barely tolerate the aroma of my most flavorful Aromatic tobacco.  She liked everything I said in that post except my mentioning Old Professor pipe tobacco.  Ironically, I like Old Professor the most and she hates it the most.  So, when I mentioned it, she did too.  But back in the day a man smoking a pipe was his lifestyle.  Today, it's a hobby, and not just for men. But too back in the day, no woman could walk down the street without some perv...
